How would I increase a integer value inside this loop?

Trying to increase an integer value

So basically I’m trying to increase "e" so everytime I input a new line it would go 0, 1 etc

My input would look like this

example1
example2

def no(paths: str):
    e = 0
    for path in paths.split(" "):
        print("            ItemListData(" + str(e) + ")=(ItemDefination=" + path + '")')
        e = e + 1

while True:
    paths = input()
    no(paths)

When I do this I get this:

ItemListData(0)=(ItemDefination=example1")
ItemListData(0)=(ItemDefination=example2")

What I want is this

ItemListData(0)=(ItemDefination=example1")
ItemListData(1)=(ItemDefination=example2")

>Solution :

Assuming you want to have the value e increase every time you execute the function, you can do this:

def no(paths: str, e: int):
    for path in paths.split(" "):
        print("            ItemListData(" + str(e) + ")=(ItemDefination=" + path + '")')

e = 0
while True:
    paths = input()
    no(paths, e)
    e += 1

The first two lines of output, with inputs as follows:

execute1 execute2

execute1
    ItemListData(0)=(ItemDefination=execute1")
execute2
    ItemListData(1)=(ItemDefination=execute2")

Note that you have an infinite loop. To not have an infinite loop, you could change the loop condition to something like while e < x to make the loop contents execute x times.
